10,000 bonus points per 20 transactions

[simongr]

Data point:

Nov - 81 Transactions - 40K posted, now owed 121K based on the promo I was offered by the website and accepted in good faith.

Interestingly I am wondering if I am going to be questioned on Movember as I am going to have around 25-30 Movember transactions as people are giving me cash and I am paying online to make it easier for them

Bunch of mo bro's at work hit me for a donation so have been working through that over the last couple of days. Will likely end up with 10 or so Movember donations

Com'n ... I don't Think that AMEX CSRs are reading this thread and that your posts will be some kind of evidence against them

Can you give us the exact last date you had 5,000 points credited to your account?

My husband's card reached another 10 transaction lot yesterday. Another 5K bonus posted to his account today so no stoppage on his. Go figure.

Who gets the tax deduction in this situation?

Name on receipt I guess.

Well one assumes that you are putting their names in for the tax receipt...so with two dozen different people issued tax receipts you should have no problem if queried.

Well it is 10 weeks today from when many started registering.

With T&C stating points can take upto 10 weeks from when they are earnt (ie after 5, 10 or 20th) people who have never had points awarded should start as soon as that anniversary date is reached...assuming that Amex is to honour the T&C that is.

For others who received bonus points initially till Sept 23/34...it will be in another weekish time (though some like me that received points for all 3 promos may have to wait another week or so till the extra points awarded are made up for).

^ from date of registration (18/9)
# up to and including 25/11, with at least 2 transactions to post from yesterday (plus any from my wife). Goal is 90, so I'm well ahead of target - think I need to re-set my target to 100

Hopefully, one day very soon (end of 10 week "in limbo" period), my first 5K bonus points will post (from September).

From my count I would start expect points to come through on December 4 ...... I think Amex should just put the bonus points in now to relieve all the call centre staff who will have to endure a flurry of calls from us chasing the points up.
